Dunlap tore his Achilles. He's done for the year.

That's right about Dunlap. Did Faalele test positive for COVID?

I don't think he's fully recovered from offseason surgery.

No. Nobody knows for sure, but the best guess is that he chose to opt out.

The Gophers forced three punts in the first quarter. I know Illinois sucks, but it's still encouraging.

Quite possible, but how the hell did they lose 43-3 to Northwestern in week 1?!

2020, the year all hell broke loose. Maybe this team is starting to get it together, maybe not. Either way, it’s a helluva year.

Tough to gauge much with that win. That Illinois team was bad before a bunch of their roster couldn't play.
